I took a survey around 8 this morning and got the SR congrats page. Reading this thread, I decided to go in a check to make sure I couldn't take another one and it's letting me, although I didn't qualify for anything. I don't want to do the wrong thing and keep trying if the first will credit, but I also can only miss 2 more before I won't qualify for the big bonus. Do you think it's just a GF glitch?

Who knows, IMHO I would take another one bc everytime I get the congrats page It won't let me take another one. BUT then again I was able to get into a survey this morning, but then my pc locked up and i Had to reboot. Ever since then I'm getting the same screen as I would have if I had taken one for the day. I'm not sure what to think, since I've tried off and on all day with no luck.

I keep having no options most of the time, but did manage to get a survey about evaluation of credit card applications I might get in the mail.
The fact I have little to none to choose from in my regular daily survey might explain why there are are usually no options in the SM for DH anymore - even though his age/gender definitely puts him in a very different sort of demographics than me! Apparently, not different enough, tho.
Very interesting to me, some of these other posts - GF seems to be having a funny month.

I was able to get a DS around 3pm today... I got the congratulations page but I didn't check to see if I could take another survey. I guess I better go and check.

Has anyone been able to get an OTX survey? I tried all day yesterday and most of today and I just keep getting the same couple of surveys!

Well, I never even go check. I get the SR Congratulations header w/ the paragraph disclaimer thingy, I'm done, I dont' even go back to that page until the next day. I'd rather go on the side of caution and risk a credit than putting a bee in greenfield's bonnet.

I've always rec'd credit after getting that page. I thought the "guidelines" were that if you receive that page you should not even attempt another (I could be wrong on that, and not criticizing those that check, that is just my understanding of how daily surveys go.).

From what I've understood, is that if you clear cookies and then go try again, THAT is being naughty and sneaky and tricky. But just to go from the "congrats" page to a page where you can click the Daily Opinion Survey link again, and click on the big green picture, to see if it offers you something, is just double-checking that it really "took".

But they are definitely having some floopiness over there, b/c of what seemed to be, in my case, a delayed "taking" of the survey I did. v. v. odd, to copy Bridget Jones.

Gotcha, I knew that about the cookies thing, just thought it was standard practice to accept the congrats page as you got one. I didn't realize there ever was an issue of a survey "not taking" when you've received that particular page. Now, getting som funky ending page, like that white one w/ black text that was floating around a few months ago..those I went back and checked.

I've been reading about the floopy there today so I realize today is of special concern that things aren't taking...I guess my question was why people check after getting the congrats, which I gues is b/c some have missed credits even when getting that page?

Now, if I could only get one today! I'm not hypertensive, and none of above give me nada.

(I love Bridget btw!!)

I just take a survey on cleaning products. And I got the Congrats page.

[mollyeilis]

Yep, the congrats page, and before that, the "you've exceeded" page, have never been as much of an absolute as checking to see if you can take another. In my experience at least.

See, now I just learned something new. I wouldn't have thought clearing cookies would matter for the DS as I didn't think there was cookies involved in that process.
